Water is the main culprit for damaging your watch! Before use, always pay attention to the ATM mark. It designates the depth – that is, the water pressure that your watch is designed to withhold. Such conditions can only be achieved in a testing lab. In practice, the movement of your hand through the water will drastically increase the pressure on your watch and it may not resist to be submerged to the depth in metres indicated on your caseback.
CAUTION: In spite of the fact that the watch is made of high quality material, there are rare cases when it can cause skin reaction with hypersensitive users. That is why each customer is individually responsible for any allergic reaction that may occur as a result of their health issue.
